Chapter 47: Entering the Dark Prison

Inside the car, the driver lowered his voice and said to Lu Xiao.
"Why don't the two of us just stay in the Dark Prison!"
Lu Xiao narrowed his eyes.
"My friend, your idea is very dangerous!"
The driver gave an awkward smile.
"I was just joking, don't take it seriously!"
The car drove through the silent, dim streets, the engine roar of the American big V8 constantly echoing in the air.
Heavy breathing sounds could be heard from the surroundings from time to time.
Countless scarlet light spots flickered in the shadows.
The driver shrank his neck.
"It looks like we've been surrounded!"
Lu Xiao grinned.
"Be confident, drop the 'looks like'!"
The driver instantly fell into panic.
"Then what should we do now? I don't want to die!"
Lu Xiao slapped him on the back of the head.
"Well said, my friend! If you fucking don't want to die, then why did you make such a huge commotion!"
This slap was so heavy that Dart, sitting in the back row, felt a dull ache in the back of his own head.
Coming to his senses, the driver hurriedly manipulated his vehicle to eliminate all sound.
Dart's voice came from the back row.
"Mr. Lu Xiao, where are we going?"
Hearing this, Lu Xiao looked through the car window at the surroundings, and then froze in surprise.
"Where is this place?"
This did not match the scenes in his memory at all.
The driving driver almost couldn't help slamming on the brakes to a stop.
"Then how are we supposed to find that friend of yours?"
Lu Xiao pondered carefully for a moment, then said.
"We can only let Uncle Chainsaw find us! I hope Uncle Chainsaw isn't too far away from us!"
He thought for a moment, then borrowed a dagger from Dart and gently sliced it across his wrist.
The dagger swept across his wrist, leaving a small cut from which beads of blood oozed out.
Then he rolled down the window, extended his hand outside, and explained.
"The anomalous entities you speak of are extremely sensitive to scent. The higher their grade, the more sensitive they are!"
"As long as Uncle Chainsaw smells my scent, he will track it to find me!"
Dart remained silent for a long time before speaking in a heavy tone.
"But the smell of blood will also attract other powerful anomalous creatures!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the driver's trembling voice sounded.
"Are you。。。。 talking about that one?"
His trembling finger pointed forward.
…………
C03 Containment Facility.
The Doctor adjusted his monocle.
"I intend to classify your team among the sacrificial personnel!"
"Of course, this is entirely voluntary. For those unwilling to join the sacrificial unit, I will assign you to guard the consumables!"
As the words fell, Starlight, Slick, and Xiaoyu raised their hands without hesitation.
The remaining three silently took a step back.
One of them spoke with a hint of guilt in his tone.
"I'm sorry, but the mission of the sacrificial unit is simply too dangerous!"
Yet no one looked down upon these three who backed away.
Even Slick, who was always fond of joking, had an extremely somber voice at this moment.
"May fortune favor your martial endeavors!"
The three exchanged a glance and then simultaneously gave a prison guard salute.
Before long, a middle-aged man with a cigarette in his mouth arrived.
"Welcome to hell, rookies!"
Dante took a deep drag from his cigarette.
"From now on, I will be responsible for training you into qualified sacrificial personnel!"
"You can call me the Devil, because my codename is Dante!"
The Doctor patted Dante on the shoulder and then turned to leave.
Starlight and the other two exchanged glances and snapped to attention.
Dante pulled a pack of cigarettes from his pants pocket and handed one to each of them.
"The Devil's first task for you is: learn how to smoke!"
Starlight: "..."
Xiaoyu: "???"
Slick: "You really are a devil!"
…………
Dark Prison.
A massive monster blocked the path of Lu Xiao and the others.
Its colossal body completely obstructed the road.
All over its body, dense clusters of eyes stared collectively at the vehicle where Lu Xiao and the others were.
This scene made the two people in the car feel their scalps go numb.
Lu Xiao wore a deadpan expression and roared at the driver.
"What are you staring at! Why aren't you driving away?"
The driver abruptly jerked the steering wheel, turning the vehicle around on the spot.
Lu Xiao said with a look of disappointment.
"Bro! Teleport!"
"If I had a driver's license, I would never let you drive this car!"
Under the driver's flurry of panicked operations, the Raptor's body began to flicker.
It looked as though the image was dropping frames.
When it reappeared, they were already in another street.
The monster watched the disappearing Raptor pickup truck, its eyes filled with utter confusion.
However, it quickly caught the scent again.
Boom!
Rumble!
The massive body began to wriggle, causing even the ground to tremble slightly.
In the car, Dart said with lingering fear.
"Mr. Lu Xiao, what level was that monster just now?"
While letting his blood drip, Lu Xiao cupped his chin with his other hand and pondered.
"According to your terminology, it should belong to a supernatural anomalous entity!"
Dart asked in a deep voice.
"Then are you a match for that monster just now?"
Lu Xiao grinned.
"Of course! In its eyes, I am simply a very delicious meal!"
With that, he began to popularize some knowledge to Dart.
"In the Dark Prison, whenever you see something of this massive size, running away is definitely the right choice!"
"And those with an exceptionally high number of eyes!"
Thinking for a moment, Lu Xiao added.
"And the ones with tentacles!"
"When you encounter these three types, run as fast as you can, and you'll be fine!"
Dart firmly etched Lu Xiao's words into his heart.
"Are there any other precautions?"
Lu Xiao thought for a moment and added.
"Oh, right! Don't go around eating random things in the Dark Prison!"
"Aside from those that can move which you can eat with peace of mind, don't eat any other food!"
"If your digestion isn't great, you might get diarrhea!"
The corners of Dart's mouth twitched violently.
Yet he still firmly remembered Lu Xiao's words.
At this moment, Lu Xiao pointed at the driver.
"Anomalous entities in human form like this one are extremely rare delicacies!"
"Once you've tasted it even once, the flavor will linger in your memory forever!"
Hearing this, both the driver and Dart shuddered simultaneously.
Dart felt a contraction in his stomach and couldn't help dry-heaving.
At that moment, the ground began to tremble again.
The driver immediately looked in the rearview mirror; that monster had caught up once more.
This time, without Lu Xiao's reminder, he hurriedly activated the teleportation function.
Since they were currently inside the Dark Prison, he didn't have to worry about the vehicle suddenly losing power.
Back then, he had relied on this vehicle to escape the pursuit of countless monsters and countless times avoided his fate of becoming food.
Yet this time, less than half a minute after teleporting out, the ground began to tremble again.
The wound on Lu Xiao's wrist had already healed, and blood no longer flowed from it.
